Translation of kaftan in German

Translation by Vocabulix

The next place was huge, had warm water, two large beds, separated shower and toilet, and the windows were towards some kind of patio. I asked to receive the same but with a view to the street.The best place to eat for us was the Tamarin cafe. The atmosphere was really a backpackers atmosphere, but with style. People were sitting there with laptops and and travel guide books.I guess it is a very interesting book, but I did not entirely understand it. What did the author try to say, what message did he want to deliver? Do you want that I recommend another book?
